You’re saying everybody else has made a black-and-white, but I am here trying to talk to you about it in a nuanced way, which you responded to by attacking me personally and pushing it back into a more black-and-white discussion. I’m not really sure what you want out of this so I think it’s best we just let it go. You seem quite heightened for somebody who is not emotionally invested in it.
I’m emotionally invested in it because I’m sick of letting corporations take things I love away from me.
I have been to hundreds of concerts, followed bands across the country, and spent hours upon hours waiting in line for tickets. I used to go stand in line at a damn Kroger to get tickets so I could avoid paying Ticket Master more money.
I live music & I hate corporations trying to put their names on it.
I have not made of this black & white. I am not the one drawing a line in the sand with the Foo Fighters. I’m here trying to convince you all from walking away from something that makes you happy because of some self righteous sense of morality.
The Foo Fighters simply did what the do, perform music for money. Everyone else is black & white over where that money came from. Not even what the band did with the money, just where the money came from.
Bad news friend, you aren’t going to find clean money in the music industry. It’s all foul.
You want to abandon something that makes you happy or think less of it because dirty money touched it? Your fuckin loss.
But don’t call yourself a fan. If you were, you’d at least have the patience to hear the band’s side of it before coming in a thread like this joining in on all rage bait in here.
That music is yours to love, don’t give it to Jeff. That is my only investment in this conversation.
Nobody is taking anything away from you and you don’t love foo fighters. You’re mad because people are upset at an artist’s decision. You’re projecting a lot on to this man.
You’re saying it’s our loss and it doesn’t matter but you’re also mad that people are saying “I don’t personally support this” as if my feelings on the matter impact you in the slightest. No one is forcing you to do anything.
Go see Dave Grohl perform. Don’t go see Dave grohl perform. Nothing here changes that. That ball is still squarely in your court.
